Yeah, Maria, fuck that and fuck them, his death is not your fault. What awful people. I'm glad you're rid of them, and I hope you never have to deal with them again.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Maria, I'm so glad those horrible people are out of your life. They don't deserve you. I hope the autopsy report brings you some peace.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
From your lips to God's ear.
I haven't really thought about them since I moved. I have been thinking about Rob often. It's more nostalgia than anything. And good things are happening. I'm seeing someone who is pretty awesome, and gets all of this. He's an EMT and I met him at the restaurant.

The wife of a young friend of ours died in her sleep a year ago. He was in the living room, he heard her roll over, and he didn't realize what had happened until he went to bed several hours later. She had several congenital things wrong with her, and all they could figure out was her heart shifted wrong and simply stopped. It was tailor-made for bad accusations, but there was the long history of health issues. People are a hell of a lot more fragile than you'd think.

Yay for good things, Maria!

Oh, blessed be. May I ask, how old are you? I've pretty much shrugged off the idea of anyone new, unless the universe is pretty set on the point and shoves someone my way. I met Hubby when I literally tripped over him at an SCA event, so one never knows.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Maria, I'm glad you don't have to deal with those people anymore.
In other randomness, I'm kind of boggling at an OK Cupid profile that includes this: "Im a mensa certified genuis. Im very ambitious which makes me misunderstood alot and is probably why I am single." It's actually one of several misunderstood genius profiles I've seen. But this one is special for the spelling and punctuation.

I'm gonna say it's not his ambition that makes him misunderstood and single. Or perhaps he hasn't noticed that other ambitious people have relationships.

Rob had a congenital heart problem. He was born with a hole in his heart--ventricular septal defect--that was patched at age 4. Their contention is that I exacerbated the problem by constantly nagging and fighting with him. His doctor told me that the autopsy showed that he died of an unrecoverable fatal arrhythmia that can sometimes happen after the type of surgery he had, even years later. It was just shitty luck, but with him being cleared to play pro hockey we all thought he was OK. Anything can happen at any time. Bodies and organs are still such a mystery.
Thank you, sj.

See, this is why I never bothered with Mensa.
